Tryndamere Top guide

Tryndamere top runs on Battle Fury (passive) stacking Critical Strike Chance from every attack, crit, and killing blow, spent through Bloodlust (Q) to heal and gain Attack Damage, with Spinning Slash (E) closing distance and Undying Rage (R) making the all-in unkillable.

The build

Rune page: Hail of Blades, Sudden Impact, Grisly Mementos, and Treasure Hunter (Domination), with Last Stand and Legend: Alacrity (Precision). Summoners: Flash and Ignite. Skill order opens Spinning Slash (E) at level 1, then maxes Bloodlust (Q) first with Spinning Slash (E) second. Starter: Doran's Bow and two Health Potions, into Berserker's Greaves. Core build: Ravenous Hydra, Phantom Dancer, and Infinity Edge, with Lord Dominik's Regards, Blade of The Ruined King, and Essence Reaver as later options.

Ability mechanics

Bloodlust (Q) increases his Attack Damage the more wounded he is, and consuming Fury with it also heals him. Spinning Slash (E) slices toward a target unit, dealing damage to enemies along the way. Undying Rage (R) makes him unable to die no matter how much damage he takes, and Mocking Shout (W) lowers nearby enemies' Attack Damage while slowing any facing away from him.
